Jake Browning is not having a fun time as of late.
The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback has stepped into a tough situation, coming on in relief of star quarterback Joe Burrow who is down for three months with turf toe. Browning, a 29 year old veteran, has been struggling to spark a Bengals offense that could've been, on paper, one of the most electric in the NFL in 2025.
Instead, they're one of the worst.
Ranked 32nd in total offense and 30th in passing headed into their bout with the Lions, the Bengals are relying heavily on Browning to piece something worth getting excited about together against a tight Detroit secondary.
